Madsonic - Mashup Mod (old Support Thread)

Does anyone know how to remove these underscores that appear on hover?



Thanks!

Does changing the theme get rid of them? I haven't seen the underscores anywhere, but I'm only using one theme. Just a thought....

yeah it's just with the Back in Black theme. My whole site is customized around that theme though so I need to fix it rather than swap themes. Any ideas?

Is facebook integration possible with this version (4.7), or do we have to wait for version 4.8?

I have created the ability for SS to "register" a user into a database as well as into SS itself using their facebook name and email address, and a password of their choice, but when I click the "login" button from the home page, it just refreshes the page - doesn't even tell me the password is wrong.

I'm building off of Sparky's login.jsp file and registration engine, if that helps.

I did not see any mention of problems with IOS or Isub. I have a couple users who use isub on their iphones and IOS 6? on their PC's and they both have the same issues. Some music will play and some will not. Also some music takes 30 + seconds to start and some does not.

I backed out of Madsonic to vanilla 4.7 and the issues are gone. I was using the b3132se build. Have any other IOS users had an issue? I really like subsonic but once you taste madsonic, subsonic seems so plain.

Hi, i bundled the installer with an newer ffmpeg version, maybe this is the problem. there are some versions that work with many features not well ..
try to replace the included ffmpeg with the original or with a newer one build from -> http://ffmpeg.org/download.html.

Is this normal behavior? If so, it may be a deal breaker for me. I'll do my best at explaining it.

In vanilla Subsonic when you selected an Artist, you would be presented with all the album names and IF the album had Artwork, that would be presented too. If an album didn't have artwork, you could click "Change" and add one.

What i'm noticing now is, after selecting an artist, instead of the Album names, I just get Years that you cannot click on. The artwork is there, but if the album doens't have artwork, NOTHING shows up so essentially the only way to find out what album one of the "Years" is, is to click Add and Play for that "Year" and look at it once its in the playlist.

As you can see, ONE album DOES show up correctly and that was added to Subsonic AFTER installing Madsonic. Whats the most painless way to purge any old database data in order to resolve this?

Nevermind. I backed up subsonic.properties and subsonic.script, completely uninstalled Subsonic and reinstalled. I then added those two files back and all is well.

Hi, this can be fixed.

You came frome the default 4.7 subsonic installation with an upgrade to madsonic. You did an upgrade to the new madsonic schema, but you have done the first init scan not with madsonic, so you have not all data to display. You can fix this with doing a full rescan and refill your database with this simple steps.

1. Go to settings - media folders
2. Disable all folders
3. Save settings
4. Start rescan
5. Enable all folders
6. Save settings
7. Start rescan

If you do so you restart a full scan without the lost of your media_file id.
This scan take much longer as only the delta scan,
but after this scan all data should be displayed correctly.

Best regards

Hey whatever you did MadEvil solved my issue with the latest build! Thanks! No more duplicate albums are listed

Hi MadEvil,

I started to test Mod 4.7 (build 3148SE) 2 days ago in a "non-productive" environment.
The main reason was that I liked Version 4.7 for it's speed but as long as the main branch takes albumartist for search and tracklisting I cannot use it.

I like the mod very much and think it is spendid work, especially that it keeps up to date with the main branch.

After testing for some hours I just want to list some problems and requests, that came up.

Problems:

1. If I directly switch to a special letter in the left frame index, the view does not jump to the headline of this letter but just a little
bit further of the first entry of that letter, so that entry can only be seen half.

2. The sorting of the albums obviously is by year and I cannot find an option in the settings to change this to alphabetical. I can understand
that a lot of users do want it just like that but it is not very useful for me. When I am looking for a special album in the album-listing I am
looking for the name of the album. If there are many albums of one artist it takes some time to find it. It's really bad with the Album-Artist
"Various Artists" and more that 200 albums to look over.

Requests and recommendations:

1. You placed the seach-field in the left instead of the top-frame. This is not generally a bad idea but there is the problem, that the serach
field vanishes out of the view if you use the scroll-bar. In my opinion the search field should always be in the view. Perhaps there is a way
to lock the search field so that using the scroll-bar does not afflict its view.

2. You added some options in the settings but I still miss some options that made it necessary for me to edit the code and produce my own mod
each time there was a new version of Subsonic. It would be desirable for me to have more options in the user settings or more possibilities to
differentiate between users and Administrators, not so much in rights what to do but in things they can see in the top frame.

Thanks for your effort to make Subsonic even better

Thanks

[MadEvil]

Hello i would like to inform me, in which folder are saved the playlists?

subsonic 4.7..

Thanks

as default in subsonic 4.7 Playlists are saved to the database and the first Playlist import path is hard coded

Code: Select all

c:\playlists

you can not change this from the interface, but you can edit it in the subsonic.properties file

Code: Select all

PlaylistFolder=c\:\\playlists

I'm getting the 'Failed to find parameter: httpSessionId' error when launching it via subsonic.sh running on Mac OS 10.8.2

EDIT: For somewhat reason it suddenly works.

Thanks Gary J for the FLAC fix. I downloaded the file from your skydrive and added the transcode. Works great!

[GJ51]

Glad to hear it worked. I've done a lot of trial and error over the last couple years and can't tell you why these particular builds seem to fix some problems that the newer ffmpeg builds have trouble with, but it's nice to have them around when something doesn't work as planned.

Sorting out the transcoding and which versions of ffmpeg work best in a given environment is probably the most time consuming and confusing aspect of getting Subsonic working with certain file types. I have found that certain avi video files will only work with certain ffmpeg builds and won't run on the latest builds.

It can drive you crazy for sure.
